Hong Kong Poster (21.25" x 30.5"); Country-of-Origin
Very Fine- Rolled
Golden Harvest, R-1974

Bruce Lee stars as a young Chinese man who has taken a vow of non-violence and moves to Thailand to join his cousins who work in an ice factory. However, he soon uncovers that the factory is actually a front for a dangerous heroin-smuggling operation. This martial arts-themed action crime drama was re-released in 1974 in Hong Kong, and the accompanying Country-of-Origin poster was printed for that theatrical run. The poster is unrestored and rolled, displaying only minor edge tears and light wear around the borders, along with small creases. The colors remain fresh and vibrant, and it features a striking image of the famous martial artist.

Originally released in Hong Kong in 1971, this film is regarded by many of Bruce Lee's fans as his most violent work. The Chinese title translates to "Big Brother from the Tang Mountains." However, when Towa decided to release the film in the U.S., they renamed it to "Fists of Fury." To reduce confusion, the original movie was later renamed "The Big Boss" for its U.S. release in 1974.
